Question 2) You are part of a medical team trying to create an alternative treatment for patients with lung cancer. Your group performs several experiments and reports results with the following p-values. Which has the most statistically significant result?
  • p-value = 0.5
  • p-value = 0.001
  • p-value = 0.0003
  • p-value=0.0001

Question 3) Given an average risk reduction (ARR) of 0.2, on average, how many people need to receive the treatment in order to benefit one of them (NNT)?
  • 5
  • 10
  • 20
  • 0.8

Question 4) You are studying the effect of a new treatment for heart attack, your job consists in looking at outcomes of the effect in patients, fill the unit level treatment effect column using the Neyman-Rubin causal model, and then calculate the average treatment effect.

Tips:
  • The event doesn't occur: 0
  • The event occurs: 1
  • Unit Level Treatment Effect: -1 represents a benefit, o represents no effect, 1 represents harm.

  • 0.375
  • -0.75
  • 0.75 
  • -0.375

Question 5) Calculate the conditional average treatment effect applying the Two-Tree Learner method, the patient has an Age=61 and BP= 130.


  • -0.24
  • -0.20
  • 0.24
  • 0.43

Question 6) Using the S-Learner, or Single Tree, method, what is the conditional average treatment effect for a 61 year-old patient with a blood pressure (BP) of 140?


  • 0.02
  • 0.22
  • 0.10
  • We can't estimate the conditional ATE using this S-Learner.

Question 7) Which considerations are relevant to the S-Learner Method? Choose all that are correct.
  • Your model is more likely to overfit your data.
  • The Decision Tree might decide not to use the treatment feature.
  • This model might produce a treatment effect estimate of o for everyone.
  • Since the two models are using each half of the data, there are fewer samples available to learn the relationships between the features.

Question 8) Which considerations are relevant to the T-Learner Method? Choose all that are correct.
  • Your model is more likely to overfit your data.
  • The Decision Tree might decide not to use the treatment feature.
  • This model might produce a treatment effect estimate of o for everyone.
  • Since the two models are using each half of the data, there are fewer samples available to learn the relationships between the features.

Information Extraction with NLP

Question 1) Which of the following is not true about BERT's inner word representations?
  • Each unique word can have exactly one vector representation
  • The representation of a word depends on the words around it
  • Words which are similar in meaning are typically close as vector
  • None of the above

Question 2) True or False: the start and end vectors are fixed throughout training
  • True
  • False

Question 3) Which of the following is a difference between BERT and LSTM models?
  • BERT is trained using backpropagation while LSTMs are not
  • BERT can be trained on multiple languages, while LSTMs cannot
  • BERT takes entire sequences as input, while LSTM models process words one by one
  • BERT uses regular word vectors, while LSTMs use contextualized word vectors

Question 4) Given the following word vectors and start and end vectors, determine the start and end of the sequence of interest.


  • start: The, end: cancer
  • start with, end: gene
  • start: gene, end: associated
  • start: breast, end. Cancer

Question 5) You find that a radiology report mentions "edema". Which of the following can you immediately conclude?
  • The x-ray contains edema
  • The x-ray contains pneumonia
  • The x-ray does not contain edema
  • None of the above

Question 6) Use the following entry in SNOMED CT to help determine the positive labels for this x-ray report.

  • common cold: 0, lesion: 0
  • common cold: 0, lesion: 1
  • common cold: 1, lesion: 1
  • common cold: 1, lesion: 0

Question 7) Let's see why F1 is used instead of the regular mean of precision and recall. Let's say the mean of precision and recall is at least 0.75. Which of the following could be the true value of the precision?
  • 0.75
  • 0.5
  • Both
  • Neither

Question 8) Now let's say F1 score is at least 0.75. Now which of the following values of precision are possible?
  • 0.75
  • 0.5
  • Both
  • Neither

Question 9) Compute the F1 score for pneumonia and mass separately based on the following retrieved labels and ground truth:


  • (0.5, 0.83)
  • (0.5, 0.8)
  • (0.75, 0.8)
  • None of the above

Question 10) Now compute the F1 score for all labels jointly:


  • 1.35
  • 0.61
  • 0.66
  • None of the above
